It's really awesome for me personally to see communities like this
form on their own. I'd like to extend an invitation to the new group
to collaborate with the Cloud Services team [2] and the Tool Labs
standards committee [3] in their program work. Efforts to make it
easier for people to develop, maintain, and publicize technical
contributions to the Wikimedia movement are important work for our
collective future.
